“…First, FA molecules interact with each other and these aggregated molecules fill the void space in the wood. Second, FA chemically reacts with wood components especially lignin (Gérardin, 2016;Hadi et al, 2021). Tartaric acid was added to the FA solution at a ratio of 5:100 by weight.…”

Wood from tropical plantation forests has lower physical and mechanical properties than mature wood. Furfuryl alcohol (FA) impregnation into the wood could help to enhance hydrophobic properties, dimensional stability, and structural strength. Furfurylation was applied to specimens of the following four fast-growing tropical wood species: jabon (Anthocephalus cadamba), sengon (Falcataria moluccana), mangium (Acacia mangium), and pine (Pinus merkusii). The discoloration and physical and mechanical properties were subsequently measured, and the results showed that furfurylated wood had a darker color and better physical and mechanical properties than untreated wood. Specifically, the furfurylated wood had higher density, modulus of elasticity, and hardness and lower moisture content, water absorption, swelling, and shrinkage. The furfurylation significantly enhanced physical and mechanical properties.

“…Based on the Indonesian standard, in which class I indicates very resistant wood and class V indicates very poorly resistant wood, untreated wood was class IV, but all furfurylated wood specimens were rated as class I. (Hadi, 2021).…”

Government support for creative industries prioritizes local material processing and local creative human resources with high competitiveness. Rustic Wood products are profane products that reinforce the aesthetic elements of today's prospective residential interior. This is in line with the 2015-2019 LIPI RENSTRA, creating scientific inventions that can encourage innovation to increase the nation's economic competitiveness (LIPI Strategic Plan, 2015). Government support for the creative industry has prioritized Upcycle, local human resources with global competitiveness. Rustic Wood products are profane products. They reinforce the aesthetic elements of today's prospective residential interior characters in line with modern residential concepts. The objectives of this research are (1) increasing the global competitiveness of Rustic Wood Upcycled products with innovative designs, (2) strengthening the exploration pattern of forms and aesthetics through strengthening design innovation with due diligence of IPR products, (3) Increasing legal protection of prototype Intellectual Property Rights (HKI) for superior export products of rustic wood. Qualitative research with a phenomenological approach focuses on the empirical experience of industrial players in the development of rustic wood export products based on strengthening innovative designs, through the following stages: (1) Exploration of field data on partner industries, (2) ensuring data sources (participants), (3) compiling instruments, (4) data analysis and representation, (5) trust criteria, (6) reflectivity of research findings. The research results show (1) the priority to increase the competitiveness of Rustic Wood Upcycled products with innovative designs, (2) explanation of strategies for strengthening exploration patterns of forms and aesthetics through design innovation as the feasibility of IPR products, (3) describing the process of enhancing intellectual rights protection (IPR) attached to prototypes or superior export products of rustic wood.

“…Regarding termites, several studies have shown that furfurylated wood can withstand these [91,[115][116][117][118]. However, for these studies nothing is mentioned about possible leaching of the wood samples prior to the termite feeding trials.…”

Wood modifications are becoming popular as a way to enhance the performance of wood, either to make it more durable, improve the performance of wood, or give it new functionality as a multifunctional or smart material. While wood modifications have been examined since the early 1900s, the topic has become a dominant area of study in wood science over the past decade. This review summarizes recent advances and provides future perspective on a selection of wood modifications, i.e., the methods that are currently commercialized (acetylation, furfurylation, and thermal modification), a rediscovered ancient practice (charring), a family of polymerization modifications that have so far made it to the pilot scale, and examples of novel wood-based functional materials explored at laboratory scale.
